Chapter 136: Chapter 136: A Dying Guy

He wasn't at the basketball court. Nor at the restaurant where we had dinner, was that only the night before last? It felt like forever. I went to his parent's house, the place where he was born, where he grew up. Where he suffered from cancer. And survived with a miracle. But no Adam.

I went back to the place of his accident, the place where we found each other again. The place where his motorcycle crashed and his mortal body died. There was nothing there to prove that he even existed. Not even a mark on the road anymore. I stood on the shoulder of the asphalt, shaking with my hands hugging me, trying not to cry anymore and failing. He was right. The mortal realm felt off. As if something shifted within it. And unlike the other realms, this off feeling wasn't comfortable. It wasn't calm and collected and happy and joyful like the souls of the other realms. The mortal realm, the source of all Creation, felt broken.
